Twisted logic
Categories : Humour, Philosophy |
Two guys are drinking in a bar. One guy goes, “I haven’t seen you around here before”. The other guy goes, “Yeah. I’m new in town. Just moved here.”
Guy1 :”Oh yeah? What do you do?”
Guy 2:”I’m a logician”
Guy 1:”Logician? What’s that then?”
Guy 2:”Well, I take what someone says and, based on that, make a conclusion”
Guy 1:”What do you mean?”
Guy 2:”Let me give you an example. Do you have an aquarium?”
Guy 1:”Yes, as a matter of fact I do”
Guy 2:”So, you like fish huh?”
Guy 1:”Love ‘em. I could sit and watch fish all day”
Guy 2:”So, you like fishing?”
Guy 1:”Yes, I love fishing. Gives me a chance to sit back, reflect and relax”
Guy 2:”So, you go on fishing trips?”
Guy 1:”Yeh, I do. I just took my wife and kid down south last weekend for a fishing trip”
Guy 2:”Ah. So you are a heterosexual”
Guy 1:”Wow! That’s incredible! How did you know?”
They go on chatting like this for a while and then Guy 2 leaves. Guy 1 stays drinking at the bar and one of his mates walks in.
Guy 1:”Hey man, guess what? I was just talking to this new guy in town. He’s a logician.”
“Oh yeh? What’s that then?”
Guy 1:”Let me give you an example. Do you have an aquarium?”
“Nah man”
Guy 1:”Well, you are gay”.
